Resumen

El síndrome doloroso regional complejo es actualmente una entidad poco comprendida en cuanto a su origen y mecanismo de producción. Los síntomas suelen ser sumamente intensos y afectan profundamente la calidad de vida de los sujetos que lo padecen. Esta revisión busca resumir los conceptos mas recientes en cuanto a posibles mecanismos fisiopatológicos de producción, manifestaciones clínicas y modalidades de tratamiento.
